Abstract:Digoxin is characterized by a small therapeutic window and a QT-interval shortening effect.Moreover, it has been shown that the genetic variants of the nitric oxide synthase-1 adaptor protein (NOS1AP) gene are associated with QT-interval prolongation.

We included 10,057 individuals from the prospective population-based cohort of the Rotterdam Study during a media… Show more
